A Coastal Gem with Mountainous Essence

Kas’s Aromatic Aura

From Antiphellos to Kas

Originally known as Antiphellos during antiquity, the city built by the Lycians now goes by the name Kas. “Phellos” in Greek translates to “Stony Place,” a fitting description for Kas. The locals humorously define their village: “The upper side is stone, the down side is sea Greek Houses and Monuments, and the middle is Kas.”

A Blend of Mountain Culture and Coastal Living

Following the exodus of Greek villagers to Greece or the Islands after World War I, Turkoman settlers embraced the vill

Serene Dwellings

Kaleiçi, renowned for its distinctive houses, embodies a seamless connection between humanity and nature. The old city life ensures that no house obstructs the view of another. The narrow streets act as natural air-conditioning, providing relief during the hot summer months. Architects and builders in Kaleiçi found innovative solutions to combat the heat and humidity, incorporating exterior insulation made from a mixture of mud, straw, and wood. This construction not only repelled humidity effectively but also created homes suitable for both winter and summer.

Natural Ventilation and Tranquil Gardens

The narrow streets not only channel the sea breeze and mountain winds throughout the district but also lead to gardens at the back of the houses, serving as peaceful havens for family life.

The Matryoshka of Antalya

Layers of History

Just like the Russian toy Matryoshka, the district of Antalya known as Kaleiçi is a unique blend of various elements. It’s a fortress, a port, a district, streets, gardens, a house, a bazaar, a hotel, a motel, a boardinghouse, a bar, a restaurant, and a cafe all nested within each other.

Historical Roots

The ancient name of the broader Antalya region is Pamphylia, meaning “the country of all tribes.” With its favorable features like the sea, fertile lands, mountains, forests, and rivers, Pamphylia has been a melting pot for various tribes. The city of Kaleiçi, looking out over the Mediterranean from the cliffs, has a history dating back two thousand years. Originally named Attaleia, it underwent several transformations – Stelai, Stalaya, Adalya – before becoming Antalya Transformations in Laleli’s Hotels A New Era, th

Hotels Embrace Change

Aysel Akkaynak, the Sales Director of Grand Hotel Gülsoy, highlights the shift in the hotel industry over the past four years. Previously, hotels had a steady stream of clients and didn’t require dedicated sales departments. However, with changes in the region’s dynamics, particularly the decline in luggage trade and the rise of larger-scale business visitors, hotels adapted. Aysel explains, “The number of clients naturally decreased, leading hotels to establish sales departments. Collaborating with travel agencies became a new strategy. Hotels, once catering mainly to Russian tourists, now attract European visitors. Our hotel is well-equipped for shopping tourism Houses in Harmony with Nature, providing comprehensive services, including meals, pastries, sauna, swimming pool, bar, disco, and sports centers. Proximity to cargo companies and historical sites is an added advantage. With the
